Markdown Editor replaces the default WordPress editor with a Markdown editor for your posts and pages. This plugin uses the Jetpack Markdown module for converting Markdown into HTML and plays nicely with Jetpack if both plugins are installed.
There are 4 editor layouts to choose from when writing posts: default, preview, full-screen and split screen. Changes are updated automatically allowing you to preview your content as you write.
By default Markdown Editor is only enabled on Posts, but you can enable it on pages and custom post types by adding post type support. For example to add Markdown support to Pages, add the following line of code to your theme’s functions.php file:
<pre><code>add_post_type_support( 'page', 'wpcom-markdown' );
</code></pre>
To add Markdown support to a ‘Product’ custom post type, add this to your theme’s functions.php file:
<pre><code>add_post_type_support( 'product', 'wpcom-markdown' );
</code></pre>
<h3>Syntax Highlighting</h3>
By default, Markdown Editor enables syntax highlighting for code blocks. This can be removed by adding the following line of code to your theme’s functions.php file:
<pre><code>add_filter( 'markdown_editor_highlight', '__return_false' );
</code></pre>
The click to copy button can be removed with the following line:
<pre><code>add_filter( 'markdown_editor_clipboard', '__return_false' );
</code></pre>

At the begining, Ghost was supposed to be a fork of WordPress. Then there was a talk of a plugin, that would give a next-generation admin panel for WordPress. But in the process it became a new blogging platform, built on Node.js. This plugin is an attempt to bring the nice and clean admin panel of Ghost back to the WordPress ecosystem.

Gust

The best markdown editing experience in WordPress to date. As already mentioned having media support would put the icing on the cake. Echoing everyone else I do hope you continue developing the plugin.
